While #mindfulness may be overhyped, it benefits #cancer sufferers and survivors: mindfulness-based interventions reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms and cancer-related fatigue in cancer patients and survivors.

Link to meta-analysis, I was fortunate to contribute to, below:

[Dr Rachel Menzies @RachelEMenzies]

Fascinating talk by @AnastasiaWho_ on psychosocial correlates of death anxiety in oncology, multiple sclerosis & ED populations. Few studies on self esteem & DA.

Great to see more research in death anxiety at #AACBT22, and excited to see the final results of this meta analysis!

Despite yesterdays tongue in cheek comments 😉 I am 100% excited to be presenting @AACBT_org_au today! Colleagues & I will be presenting on transdiagnostic factors across depression, anxiety & EDs. Mine will be on death anxiety. Would love to see you there! #AACBT2022

Important, comforting and sobering keynote by @CMurrupStewart at the @AACBT_org_au on myths and misconceptions around First Nations health & wellbeing. Ongoing injustices continue. Sovereignty was never ceded. Time to decolonise psychology practice now!! #AACBT2022

We enjoyed attending #BIRD2021 & were honoured to present some of our work there. Hu et al investigated the impacts of Chinese Tiktok trends and challenges on body image of Chinese users 👀👇 We are excited to continue this research into body image among non-Western populations.
